What did you cook or eat today (September 2023)?

[rascal]

Antibiotics kicking in and I made omelettes for 2. A 5 egg mix spring onion from our garden cheese and bacon. Free range eggs it was one of the best I've had. Yellow fluffy omelette.
Leg of lamb taken out freezer to marinate with tzatziki yoghurt spices.

So just the strawberry, lemongrass, ginger and mint soup for "evening meal".

This soup has grown on both of us and my OH has asked for it again just with more ginger and lemongrass next time!

So that and popcorn were our evening meal.

Dinner last night was – Mini glazed meatloaf, homemade cheesy scalloped potatoes, and steamed baby spinach.

You and Mrs T must be the most patient people in the universe...

Having been “downsized” twice, I’ll admit to having a soft spot in my heart for someone about to lose their job.

The other thing about that meal last night…when we got home and I unpacked the giant bag of food she gave us, I had to laugh in spite of everything.

All the boxes were the same size, the size that would hold a Big Mac.

First box: cream puff
Second box: soft pretzel wadded up to fit
Third box: reuben squished in to fit
Fourth box: half of my mett sandwich
Fifth box: other half of my met sandwich
Sixth box: a random squirt of mustard

Tried the pumpkin spice one first, naturally:

Not bad…not bad…

Here’s my roughly-handled hot mett from yesterday (with kraut, peppers, onions, and mustard)…which wasn’t a hot mett at all, just a standard mett:

Still good, though. A locally-made mettwurst, hot or otherwise, is probably my favorite (non-breakfast) sausage.

2 cuppas here with biscuits. Nothing cooked yet but leg lamb prepped for tomorrow. Middle eastern style with sumac in yoghurt. Smells delicious. In an oven bag until tomorrow

Isn't a mettwurst reserved for Oktoberfest? I seem to remember snorking one down in Covington about 4 years ago.
Half an hour later, I was snorking another one down...

Chicken marinating for chicken tikka tomorrow (October).

Homemade almond feta, smashed avocado, poached eggs (also homegrown) on rye toast.

No, not at all. They’re available all year round!

I made some bacon cheeseburgers. They're nice, and they save money, but when I have to clear up all the frying splatter after I think "Oh right - now I remember why i don't do this that often..."
